♥Superheroes♥

And so, another year.

2009-11-03T00:00:00.002+08:00

Time passes and now it's November already! Ohhh November! It means that the year is about to end and exams are coming! I see my sister studying everyday but somehow I just have not found the correct studying mood. Maybe I should start by doing my elective?

It feels weird to be blogging here somehow.

update!

2008-06-15T02:42:00.004+08:00

I am back to blogger again after half a year! Did some changes to my template.. I changed my superhero from chiaki-sama to okada! It's kind of like half a month later since I last posted in blogger my idol changed to okada. And I no longer go to divine ayu anymore. I go to ayumi hamasaki sekai; so I thought it would be appropriate if I updated accordingly. Added the link to my new blog at the side and removed the maple-related site. I wonder anyone noticed the change?

Summer is coming soon.. next month! It's like super hot now..... 28deg at night. Somehow I can't really fall asleep tonight. Really excited about Kungfu Panda tomorrow! But it's not really because of panda that I can't sleep. Just can't sleep! I hate it when I can't sleep! Or rather, I don't want to sleep? Damn I want a 42" plasma TV!

after a long hiatus..

2008-01-13T02:19:00.000+08:00

.. i decided to update. I kind of found this old blog of mine when I was reading pj's blog. I guess I just can't sleep well today after finding out that my precious maple account was hacked by some bastard. Curse him/her to hell!!!!!!! I never thought that I will become the victim. Now I am worried that my pc was "keylogged". Oh well. Next week the full onslaught of tutorials and day-long classes begin. Thank goodness I still have a 4 day week. And I really seriously need to work harder this semester. I always do badly during sem 1!!! What's wrong with me? Tomorrow bx and xi are going to ark's to have a haircut. Still thinking if I should meet up with them. Kinda miss them.

Oh and by the way, I have moved from cyworld to wordpress. I liked cyworld now. But I have already moved! Maybe I'll try to manage both of them? Nah.. I'm so lazy.

::moved::

2007-06-04T15:06:00.000+08:00

I've moved, I guess (for now) to Cyworld. My new url is http://us.cyworld.com/rychie

2007-05-31T23:07:00.000+08:00

I hate my Robinson's job!!! ARGH!!!!! It's hindering everything!! It sucks!!!! ARGH!!!!

2007-05-27T01:58:00.000+08:00

I'm thinking, if I really want something and keep thinking about it, will I get what I want?

Dunno. This is dumb.

Anyway, Elton John - Your Song. Sweet sweet song.

Today's or strictly speaking yesterday's KBox was the most fun and enjoyable one I ever had, because the atmosphere was really very high with the 3 of us screaming and jumping on the couch!!! ぎゃぼ！The song that we liked best was ****drum roll******** "只对你有感觉" by Fahrenheit!! (I think so, cos we sang it 3 times and kept saying that wuzun was super cute.) F.I.R. songs made us super high!!! I never sang like this all my life. It seems the other people that I go to Kbox with are more obsessed with singing well rather than having insane fun. Kalene always choses those super hard to sing songs!! にゃーー And if I get too high with Fiona and the 10/04 girls, I think they'll think I'm crazy. Can imagine the look on Estella's and Ping Aik's face if I were to start jumping on the couch and screaming into the mic. So everytime when I'm with them, we'll just sit on the sofa and sing. Not fun right, like that... So next time, must lead a revolution! きゃ！

This Polaroid shot was courtesy of XR, who dropped by for a very short while. Think we looked rather tame in this one.

I've been seeing a lot of my Tk-days-best-friends recently and I hope to see them soon again!! KBOX KBOX!!!

2007-05-24T23:23:00.000+08:00

Just watched Pirates 3 and felt it was ok, nothing very exciting but funny at certain points. I couldn't remember much of the plot in parts 1 and 2 so if you are like me, it would do well to watch the 1st 2 installments before going for part 3. I would still prefer Spiderman 3 because I felt the show really touched me at certain points.

And finally Heroes have come to an end and Lost as well. Which means an end to the 2 American dramas that I always follow! Next season starts next year. Happy waiting again...

::holiday::

2007-05-22T00:38:00.000+08:00

I really really want to go to Japan and/or Europe (especially since I started reading Nodame vol 10 because I was deeply attracted by the abundance of art, culture and music over there). On one of the days when I was out with Bixia we started discussing the possibilities of going to Japan this Summer. VERY exciting because it sounded as though we were bound to go. Suddenly I had this urge to find a job to finance the trip. BX said if she were to pay, her mom would let her go. But when I asked my mom, her response was a strong no. I never felt as sad!

Anyway BX and I went to several restaurants the day we went out. And some restaurants really have very poor customer service. And that Sun and Moon (whatever the name, I can't remember but I know it's at Wheelock Place) and Sakae Sushi (also at Wheelock) had the worst hosts. Or rather, at Sun and Moon, we waited for a host to come serve us for like 5min? And those waiters/waitress/manager that saw us waiting outside did not even take the initiative to come and serve us!! And when one person finally came, she didn't bother to talk to us properly. Just because we look kiddish and poor and unable to afford the food there? Talk about bad service!! But the food there isn't bad, I have eaten there a couple of times. And then at Sakae Sushi, we were standing right in front of the 2 hosts (who seem to be of a rather high rank) who were talking before we got there. We waiting for them to serve us but they didn't. They saw us standing there (because as I said, we were right IN FRONT of them and I saw them look at us from the corner of their eyes) but they just continued talking, making us wait! Now what kind of lousy attitude and service was that?!

And by the way, where the hell is Kuriya at Shaw Centre located? We walked up and down the entire building and even called the place but still can't find it!

Now for the good part. We finally went to Crystal Jade Palace Restaurant for black sesame paste. The host seemed friendly and there was this lady who served our food that was very kind to us. She took her initiative to help us with the noodles a second time when she saw BX having difficulty scooping it up with the serving spoon thingy (you know, the one that are commonly used in Chinese restaurants, comprised of 2 spoons with the concave part of the spoons held facing each other) with a SMILE! At most places, they would just help you with the 1st serving and leave you after that. And she even taught us how to use the serving spoon thingy after she cleared our cutlery for the dessert. And refilled our water when everyone else didn't and also called for our dessert immediately after clearing the cutlery. Both BX and I were eyeing her name tag. Tan Sok Kim if I didn't remember wrongly. She's nice! Can't more of this people exist?

Just watched Letters from Iwo Jima today. I liked it very much. Still thinking about it now. Hoping to watch Flags of Our Fathers soon.

::end of exams::

2007-05-04T15:46:00.000+08:00

Exams are FINALLY over!!! But I don't feel as excited as that first sentence sounds. But movies galore! Plenty plenty to watch this month!! Spiderman 3 was exhilarating and super nice! I don't mind watching it again. On weekdays 9pm, there's this new drama on Channel 8 that is surprisingly interesting and funny. I think people should watch it if they can =)

::study blues::

2007-04-30T15:00:00.000+08:00

Spiderman is coming tomorrow!! I am so excited I can't study =(

2007-04-24T22:48:00.000+08:00

There was this particular day when I saw this soon- to- be army boy with his parents waiting for transport or something by the road. And I realised that this particular boy was someone I always saw since Secondary 2. He's my junior and was really short when I 1st saw him and now... Time passes really fast........

Since the starting of exams I watched 3 movies, namely Meet the Robinsons, The Reaping and Midnight Detective. All in 7 days! Meet the Robinsons was undoubtedly the nicest with The Reaping being the most traumatizing and Midnight Detective being rather hard to comprehend. Or at least for me because my roomie seem to have no problem understanding it.

3 more papers to go and it's over!!

2007-04-13T13:21:00.000+08:00

今日の日本ごの「オーラ」テートは全然よくないです。。　さ来週の水曜日に日本ごの試験わがんばって！でも時間がありません。来週試験が沢山あります。。　ああ、頭が痛いです！＞＜

Once again fooling around with my not-very-good Japanese. Sigh, my Sensei was too nice, she kept smiling until I don't know whether what I said was right or wrong during the oral. When I left the room I then realised my mistakes. Haha, kinda screwed over my pronunciation. But it's over!! Yay!! I wanna watch Meet the Robinsons!!! Need to freeze my brain a bit.

::stomachache::

2007-04-13T12:20:00.000+08:00

Feeling extremely nervous about the Japanese oral 30mins later!! I think I should leave the room soon...

::but above all...::

2007-04-12T00:11:00.000+08:00

I went to see the doctor today. He didn't seem to believe that I have a sinus toothache so I got a bunch of painkillers from him instead. I guess I'll just get some neti pot from the pharmacy and try it out myself. But the painkillers work. I should be feeling like shit now but thanks to synflex there's no throbbing headache and toothache.

After I got back from the doctor I had no mood to study so I checked out the new stuff added in maple today. But best of all, I watched Moulin Rouge. It was always in my laptop and think it was recorded a few years back when Fear Factor 3 was still showing. It was such a nice film!!!!!

Anyway I am finally on my last set of notes for Math 2!!!!! I'm gonna stay up till 3am to finish it! All the way!!!

EDIT:
Hm, I went to search synflex (used to relieve pain and inflammation) and under uses, toothache wasn't there.... no wonder the ache isn't exactly totally gone.

EDIT EDIT:
Ok, I see dental uses on another site. ><

::sinus toothache::

2007-04-10T19:22:00.000+08:00

I think I have got a sinus toothache!!! My entire mouth and brains are throbbing with pain so much I can't study or sleep, so I ended up here. I have finally decided to visit the doctor tomorrow, but I'll probably go to the one outside NTU since I heard NTU doctors aren't exactly the best. I really need to beat the pain or I'll never finish studying for my exams which start next week!! Just started on Math 2 today and am still stuck in the 1st chapter after so many hours because I just can't concentrate. This really bad......... Foul luck!

2007-04-08T00:16:00.000+08:00

Nowadays nobody reads my blog!! I asked my roomie if she read, she said, yeah... last time. I asked Luuan Chin if she read, she said no. And these are the people with the highest chance of reading!!! Ah well it's ok.. i got my yellow belt thanks to JJ!!! Hoho.. cos tomorrow is once again, TKD Grading day!! Time flies! And next next week will be the start of the exams already. My Multiple Integrals is still a mess, so is my Accounting, and both are my initial papers..

There's this very nice movie that I'd like to share and that's "Because I Said So". Don't be bored by the title, it's actually surprisingly amusing. Initially I wasn't totally into watching it but I thought I shouldn't be the extra person who objected (I am not exactly a rom-com person) so I went along with the idea. And it turned out much better than expected!

And soon Summer will come and along with it, Summer Blockbusters!!! For example, Spiderman 3, Shrek 3, Pirates 3, Harry Potter 5, Fantastic 4 and so much more!! Can't wait till the end of exams!

2007-04-04T17:40:00.000+08:00

Ahh yesterday someone whom I thought would never speak to me spoke to me!! But I just kinda stoned there not knowing what to say.. after all I don't know the topic well enough anyway.

And yesterday Angela spoke to me online!! She seems to have changed.. the way she typed was so different from last time!!! Near the end of our conversation she suddenly told me her ex (a guy by the name of Weijie) has broken up with this Stacy female. For a moment I was stunned because I didn't know he was still in her mind like after so long (that was since Sec sch days dude..) and I was thinking if I knew exactly which guy was she referring to and to make sure, I asked who he was. Wa immediately she said "kk bye dun talk to you le..." (I knew it was a joke but still I was quite shocked). Then I guessed it must be the right guy I was thinking about so I immediately say "I know who he is le.. the skinny one right?" then she say "I still remember Desmond lor.." and suddenly I remembered Desmond and started laughing. It was something I totally didn't expect her to say! Hmm, private joke so maybe some people may not understand.

Today I was at NUS.. think they have better lecturers........

お金がぜんぜんありません! But thank goodness today is already Friday and thank goodness for friends =).

今日宿題が沢山あります。明日時間がありません！

Urgh what am I doing, trying to write in Japanese. Tomorrow will be a busy day!! Actually I am supposed to be doing my Japanese homework now but as always, I am procrastinating. Washed a whole lot of clothing this morning only to find it soaked by the rain!!!! Damn the rain!!

::quiet::

2007-03-25T00:06:00.000+08:00

I see holes in my wallet!! Overspent again!!! But it's nice to go shopping with a great friend. Rather than being somewhere else.. The LKC Reference Library is a pretty good place to read up on stuff too! I was surprised to see Kian Boon and Eugene there. Were they studying? I was looking at some design and black holes stuff (that was really exciting!!) until the library closed for the day.

And uhmm there's this really not bad Japanese film - Heavenly Forest/ Tada Kimi o Aishiteru that I would recommend watching.

Damn the 2 zits on my chin!!!

2007-03-21T18:57:00.000+08:00

Suddenly I am feeling really strange. Even though there are no more upcoming quizzes (as far as I know until now). Suddenly I feel like going for TKD! This is really interesting because I have not been feeling that way for some time already. Going home today to sew up another parachute because the last one was too small!! I didn't know the due date for the chute thingy was next Monday!!

Suddenly feel very sick of my music. Ya, even Ayu's music. Oh dear... something's wrong!! I expect my period to be coming soon.

I just visited bx's blog and I am thinking how long does she spend blogging. Just some random thoughts.

::sleepy::

2007-03-14T10:53:00.000+08:00

Finally all my quizzes are over! It was a very tiring week.. feeling very sleepy even up to now. If only I can get my hands on A Best 2.

::back home::

2007-03-03T02:53:00.000+08:00

Back from Phuket!!! And I think I am allergic to beer. Because after yesterday night's drinking game, when I woke up this morning, my back was red and itchy! I just came up with this idea about being allergic to beer when my mom asked me if I ate or drank anything that isn't in my usual diet. And beer wasn't, especially the fact that I drank a fair bit yesterday. I hope it would just go away by tomorrow!!!! The itch involved is really uncomfortable!!

2007-02-26T22:33:00.000+08:00

I have always wondered why is it that people take drugs; what is the kind of satisfaction they derive from taking it. I really wanted to know what is the driving force for them to so desire it after trying it only once. How is it like? What is the sort of high they experience? What is the so-called feeling as though they have no worries at all? But after watching Protégé today, I believe I will never want to know how it is like. There's this scene in the movie where this junkie died from an overdose; she was having spasms all over when she was dying, it looked as though she was possessed or something. The cop came to look for her and saw her body covered with rats. They were eating her corpse and hell it was gross. Terrifying.. for a moment I thought I was watching a horror film. Nightmares!!! Daniel Wu plays Nick, the undercover cop who has the same question. Nick said he finally realized why people take drugs after the female junkie [who was his neighbour] and Andy Lau's character [his 'mentor' and the guy the cops are after] died. He says it's because of emptiness that people take drugs. But which is scarier? Emptiness or drugs? Well it is a good movie.

::sick::

2007-02-24T00:27:00.000+08:00

Yes, since CNY, I've been sick. On the 2nd day of new year, I got a sore throat and fever, due to too much sun from walking around all over Singapore. The sore throat was getting better until today when it got worse because of school. Talked to much perhaps. Now I have a sore back as well, due to TKD today which kind of hurt my back again. Phuket is next week but I am not exactly looking forward to it. I know so little about the entire trip I feel as though I am not the one making the trip! (Just emailed Hamon to get some answers.) Anyway, I believe my period will come when I go to Phuket, which is going to be a greater damper to my spirits. I really hope it'll be more fun than Redang, nonetheless.

Today I bumped into many friends but they kind of behaved in a weird manner. For example, when I was in the laundry Jiachi came in just as I was about to leave. I totally didn't see him because my back was facing the door. It's so obvious he saw me!! Anyway, it was only at the lift that I saw him and I said "So the other person in the laundry room was you.".

He said something like I was so unfriendly because I didn't greet him!! OMG. And he had this grin on his face when he said that. And when I retorted with me not seeing him and him definitely saw him, the grin got wider and for a moment I thought I have never seen him smile like that before. Well I'm glad the lift stopped at his floor when I ran out of things to say.

Another one was when I was going for Accounting tutorial and I bumped into this TKD friend. We are just mere acquaintances but I still waved because the whole group of us had had dinner together several times after TKD, even though we didn't talk much. I waved but he kind of stoned and I waved again and he felt weird, like who was I waving to and looked around and realised it was him I was waving to so he waved back. And then I said if I wasn't saying hi to him who was I greeting? (Which was a rather lame statement but whatever). I saw him during TKD and he said he totally didn't recognise me and was thinking why was that person waving to him and even talked to him and it was then he realised it was me............. That's why I dislike waving to people.

And then when I was at South Spine I saw this other guy (another acquaintance from TKD) who kept saying I looked really familiar and I could hear what he was saying and knew he was referring to me even though I was quite a distance away. As I walked closer he just kept repeating that sentence so when I passed him, I said cos I'm from TKD that's why. When I saw him during training, he said after I told him I was from TKD he finally remembered where he saw me from. I don't blame his memory but it's kind of dumb to keep saying someone looks really familiar and to keep staring at the person, you know.

And on the train I had a discussion with Judy about our clique in TKD and certain people. It was an interesting conversation especially when she asked me who looked better, Desmond or Junzhe (whatever his name is) and I had no answer because I felt they can't really be compared because they are either on par or too different. Bleah, it's 1+ already!

如果没有奇迹我创造一个给你。你让我相信我可以！

Some lyrics from some Chinese song that I'm currently listening to. It sounds pretty sweet doesn't it...? I managed to watch Ghost Rider today. I felt that it was nice but my sister thought that the plot was quite thin. Well maybe it was, but somehow I just liked it. Elektra was the worst comic to movie adaptation I've ever seen so far anyway. There are quite a lot of nice movies now, like Letters from Iwo Jima, Notes on a Scandal, Babel, Dreamgirls, Little Children, The Protege and Last King of Scotland. And I really hope I can watch 3 of them (Letters from Iwo Jima, Notes on a Scandal, and Dreamgirls). Babel was nice (gripping and thought-evoking, every story in the movie has a different kind of emotion and feel attached to it and it makes me anticipate about how the plot will continue to thicken) but not exactly my cup of tea though. I remember a friend once said: "If there's only one movie that you can watch the whole year, that would be Babel.".

Well, I don't think so! Spiderman 3 and Harry Potter all sound much more exciting that Babel! =p Can't blame me for saying this, after all, Spidy and Harry are some of my greatest idols!

::cab snatchers!!!::

2007-02-17T23:31:00.000+08:00

The world is full of inconsiderate pests and I had the great misfortune of bumping into not 1 but many of them yesterday!! I took the train from school to Outram hoping that there would be cabs at the taxi stand but to my surprise there were none at all. I was hurrying back home because my family was having the reunion dinner earlier this year as my mom and grandfather would be overseas by New Year's Eve. The queue at the taxi stand was quite long and the taxis were all on call and none stopped. To make things worse, some idiots stood before the taxi stand queue trying to flag taxis!! And that was extremely unfair to those in the queue because if everyone did that, those in the queue will never be able to board the cab and hell, what's the purpose of the taxi stand then!?!??! MY GOODNESS can't they be more gracious and considerate?!? It's not as though they are the only ones in the world who is in a hurry!!!!!!! Anyway, after someone successfully hailed a cab by snatching it and this old couple with their granddaughter in tow tried to do the same thing. And they were at the back of the queue, next to me. The guy who was in front of the queue confronted them by telling them that what they were doing was wrong and told them that if they wanted to get a cab, they should join the queue like everyone else. Boy weren't they pissed at him! Anyway, after grumbling amongst themselves for a while, another guy at the back managed to snatch another cab and the horrible old hag started scolding the poor guy who had told them off. She was saying why didn't he lecture the other guy who had boarded the cab and yada yada yada. Now this was when I got seriously pissed at her and yes, a pissed me isn't to be trifled with! I told her off immediately, saying in Mandarin why couldn't they be like everyone else, join the queue and wait. It's not as though they are the only ones in a hurry and all that, why can't they be considerate? And I said all this in a very calm tone, all the while leaning against the bar infront of me. The bitch PRETENDED not to hear me and I got disgusted and tapped her shoulder. And that's when she got all ballistic and that's when the fun started!! =)

Old Hag (looking damn pissed): Why you tap my shoulder?!?!
Me (looking dead calm): Because you were ignoring me when I'm talking to you and I wanted your attention.
Old Hag (looking more pissed): Then why you tap my shoulder??!? I ALSO DUNNO YOU!!
Me (looking still as calm as ever): Ok lor, then it's my fault that I tapped your shoulder, so?
Old Hag (looking slightly smug) + husband smirking there happily watching the show: Where are you from?!?! (你哪里来的?!?! was what she said in Chinese and she was looking at what I was wearing while asking the question.)
Me (thinking about her amusing little question): 什么我哪里来的？(What do you mean where do I come from? At this point many answers came to my mind, for example: Boon Lay, Singapore, NTU. Poor thing, surely you are not thinking I am from from JC or Poly or Sec school where you can write to and complain?!?! But if she's thinking that, then I should be happy! I look younger than my real age!)
Me (happily trying to continue with my reasoning while she pretended to ignore me again): Why are you so inconsiderate and impolite? Why can't you spare a thought for those people in front of you who have been in the queue for so long?
Old Hag (totally can't stand me anymore and told her husband): Let's go! -yada yada-
Me: Ok lor, it's for the better that you are leaving! So old already still so rude!
Old Hag (continued mumbling in the distance in hokkien): that woman blah blah blah ...

And guess what, after she left, all the taxis started coming and soon I was already the 3rd person at the queue! At this point, I saw something that made me feel good. The next 2 taxis that came did not stop for those outrageous cab snatchers who started appearing! They came all the way to the front of the queue!! I salute those taxi uncles for doing the right thing! The cab that I got on also had a very nice taxi uncle who totally agreed with me telling those people off. We had a pretty good chat. He said I did the right thing! I had the right to fight for my own rights! But the saddest thing was that he thought I am a teacher! Surely I don't look that old? However, those who were in the same queue as me were totally passive about those pesky cab snatchers and only know how to "look at show" and cast not-very-nice glances at me as I scolded the old bitch. But hey, I'm doing everyone who is in the queue a favor and that's what I get? Icy stares? It's sad that many Singaporeans are so kiasi. I recounted the incident to my family when I got back and they also felt that I did right. My father felt that I shouldn't have tapped that woman's shoulder though. Ok, I'll be careful with the shoulder tapping thing then. =)

But anyway, the reunion dinner was good and I was happy, fell asleep with a full stomach. Happy Chinese New Year everyone!

Check out my new pet!!

Can you see the golden pig? I haven't thought of a new for it though. Will be asking my roomie for suggestions later =) The pig made my day!!! CNY is coming soon!! I wanna buy new shoes...

Today I just spent $83 on 2 t-shirts!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!

Huiting owes me $90 after today. I can't wait for CNY so that my bank account will grow fatter. It took me so much pains to make it go past the 1k mark and now it's in deficit again -_- I still need to buy bottoms for CNY!!

2007-02-14T01:55:00.000+08:00

Yesterday I was having dinner with some of my hall mates and one of them was asking if I regretted joining Aero. Well I think I said yes.. or was it no? Ok I think it's a yes because my friend asked what course would I choose if I didn't pick Aero. Actually it's a tough question for a person like me with no particular interest and have no realistic idea about what I wanna do in the future. After thinking about it I realise I really kind of regretted joining this course. Although I was discussing with Luuan Chin on a particular day about how things fall into place naturally and will eventually bring me closer to what I want. Ya, so if not Aero then what? Sometimes I wish that I was in the same course as my roomie; we can discuss about school work together. Now there's no one to discuss school work with. It's kinda sad.

On my way back to hall I saw Prof Shaker. Greeted him half-heartedly and quickly walked down the stairs. His presence scares me. You never know what he's thinking.

::where's my roomie::

2007-02-12T18:19:00.000+08:00

Nearly a month has passed!

ええと。。

Nothing very interesting has happened, except that I have been learning Japanese for more than a month already!! And I watched many concerts as well. The SSO Rach II concert was すごい！！And I'm also going for the Phantom in April!!! ^^

Anyway, I collected my driving licence after much difficulty last week. I combed the entire Bedok Central for the stupid post office!!!!!!! I asked for directions but somehow I couldn't understand what was said to me. I was carrying my Accounting textbook!!! It was damn heavy. I though I would die walking!!

Last Friday I went to TKD and got kicked until there's this bruise on my right thigh >< I totally didn't expect my friend to be so serious about sparring. She's not my usual sparring partner so I didn't know she could be that rough. Of course I kicked her back. Now I know you can't really show too much mercy to your opponent even during trainings. My poor roomie's aunty and mom had a hard time searching for me after TKD because they all thought I would be hitching a ride on their car. But I kind of went missing and did not answer my roomie's calls so I felt really bad for making them wait for nothing....... ほんとにすみません！

I found my calculator though.. my friend took it after Accounting thinking it was his!! And to think he didn't tell me about it until I asked him if he saw it!!!

Anyway, homework time! And CNY is next week!!! And Phuket is next next week!! Ayu's a-best album is coming out soon too!!!!!!!!!!

EDIT
I was just looking at my wishlist and I realised 2 of them have been fulfilled!! I can't get the super bandana anymore though. It's no longer dropping and I seldom Maple nowadays.

::driving test::

2007-01-15T23:27:00.000+08:00

I PASSED!!!! With 16 demerit points, I must say that I am lucky that I didn't fail! The tester had a foul face and stern tone though. He just had to keep making unpleasant remarks about my driving throughout the entire journey. But anyway I shouldn't be complaining now since I already passed. =)

Yesterday was my cousin's wedding and it was amazing because they had the sword bearer ceremony and that's right, men looking really smart in uniform! The entire restaurant had a very cosy feel to it and it has a live 'band' plus singer performing to entertain the guests during dinner.

I know I am supposed to be seriously studying now but somehow I have grown to dislike studying and going to school.

::2007::

2007-01-01T23:46:00.000+08:00

It's finally 2007!!!!!!!! I ate a lot [really a lot] today!! And I also got my new year clothes!! HAPPY!!!! [Even though new year is 2 months away and I can only year it then.] I must work hard this year!!!

::IVP::

2006-12-30T02:27:00.000+08:00

I finally decided to go back to TKD today after being lazy for 2 trainings. I guess they really need people to form the IVP pattern team since they are encouraging many of us to take part. I rejected them because I felt that my results were really shitty this time. Not that it's extremely bad but when compared to others in my course, it's VERY lousy. Anyway the senior kept asking us for our reasons of not wanting to join so I said that I fear that I can't commit to the many days of practise and my grades are really bad and I am not good enough to be in the team. Somehow I felt he thought I was giving a lame excuse. Anyway when he asked Judy she didn't think for a second before saying 'same' [meaning same reason as me]. I thought that was kinda funny. But he seemed to be pressing us for a reason so I had no choice but to say the reason that I really didn't want to say: "I also don't think I can perservere that long in TKD to take part in IVP." So he said if we joined IVP we would want to stay in TKD more... but he was too busy trying to recruit other people to continue what he wanted to say. I guessed he must have felt sian-ed. =X

But on my way home today Wan Tin kind of managed to persuade me to join IVP. However, I already strongly expressed my unwillingness to join to the senior and the Chairperson [cos she was the one who asked us if we went for the pattern selection]. It's like being really stupid to change my mind. I guess studies shall be my 1st priority next semester.

I need to stop doing nonsense stuff in hall or at home!

::Christmas '06::

2006-12-26T01:04:00.000+08:00

Today something interesting happened!! I travelled from Defu Lane 12 to Orchard Rd free[!] on a FLOAT!! Thanks to Luuan Chin of course. Haha. We were on the one with the X'mas trees and the driver was hidden in the X'mas tree itself! At night there was this X'mas celebration concert thingy that we managed to watch in a considerable comfortable environment [considering that those without invitation cards have to squeeze at the barriers to watch] in the Invited Guests Only area again thanks to Luuan Chin[!!!] who got ourselves an 'Official' pass. But still a bit paiseh la, to walk around faking as officials and disappearing once the concert ended. I took the train back and surprise surprise! The station was rather empty and I even got a seat without much difficulty on both trains that I got on! And that was just after the concert ended! I wonder what happened to the people. Or maybe it's the MRT being efficient with the train service. I hardly got a seat from Cityhall back home on normal days even! And the rain started slightly after the X'mas celebration. Thin drizzle which felt nice on the skin.

And it's time to go on a diet!!!!! I feel I am getting fatter and fatter ever since last Friday when I kept gourging myself with food. There's something wrong with my stomach!! Or is it my mouth?!

::xmas eve::

2006-12-24T13:06:00.000+08:00

I just finished watching Ayumi Hamasaki on Talk Asia, CNN International and after the whole show, I just thought as long as Ayu continues singing and making music, I will continue to buy her music. When my friends speak to me of her other than her music [basically her professional life] I find myself uninterested and unable to continue the conversation because I know nothing about what they are saying. I don't dig her scandals and stuff, it doesn't help her earn more or let me hear or see more of her performing.

But why is it that some people are so interested in the private life of artistes? Man, it's tough being famous.

Today is Xmas eve!! I wonder if I am going out later. Anyway a day at Sentosa caused one of my arms to be tanner than the other, which is gross. But it was a happy outing.

::toothache::

2006-12-16T01:14:00.000+08:00

Suffering from toothache right now. I wonder what is happening to my tooth.

Anyway, there was carrom competition yesterday and today. I lost all the matches [female double] I played yesterday [which was rather expected since it was only the 2nd time I played and I have no flair for such games]. Today we lacked players, so we didn't play AT ALL. Walkover for all 3 rounds. It was rather sad that it had to be that way, even though I wasn't really extremely enthusiastic about carrom. I wanted to play another round with ht cos I thought I performed better when player with her.

And today I got a new phone!! Free one from Singtel. It isn't bad but I still want the SonyEricsson one. But it's not very possible though. I haven't got any money and my father is not willing to spend. There's another free phone coming tomorrow from M1.

::post japan::

2006-12-08T18:23:00.000+08:00

I am suffering from post-Japan blues!!!! I absolutely love the country, clean and all with nice tv programmes and ads. I saw ayu performing on tv!!! <3 I would really like to visit Japan again. This time I must be armed with lots of cash $$$ and nice clothes or else I would look like a complete geek walking amongst them.

Today's the 8th of December which means it's Pin I's birthday! Happy birthday! Have fun on your big day!! =) Now you are as old as us!!!! Muahaha.

::physics::

2006-11-24T01:31:00.000+08:00

I was just reading Luuan Chin's blog and compared to her, I am soooooo childish!!!! *faints*

Today I did another childish action that caused some much awkward feelings between the 3 of us. And after today I think I view the person involved very much differently. Actually he wasn't as different from what I perceived him to be but somehow it didn't dawn to me that, hey, actually he's really this kind of person I thought he was. In fact, I kind of regretted what I did. And to make me appear even more childish, all this happened in maple!! Some virtual game that I don't think I ought to be as bothered about. And seriously, how did I ever manage to survive the 8 hours of intensive mapling in the past? It's kind of insane. I still can't imagine how I did it. If I can transfer all of this energy to practising Computing I would be feeling much better today.

And today's Physics was just as screwed up [or even worse than yesterday's Computing]. Seriously I don't have that much capacity to do so much takeaways!!!! Going vivo tomorrow, kind of looking forward to it. Staying in hall is like living under a rock. Staying ALONE in the room for 4 days is even worse. I seem to have cut of all means of contact with the rest of the world. But it does make me sleep early, which in turn makes me even harder to reach. But then I have never been [and never will be] Ms Popularity so it doesn't make a great deal of a difference. Talking about friends, I realise I haven't got many. Those that I really dare to approach when I am in trouble total up to 2 in NTU. ... Off to bed.

::i cant keep waiting::

2006-11-22T21:14:00.000+08:00

I am so ashamed of myself!! Others bother to study really really hard when their grades are screwed up but I, I slept and slept and slept!!!! I was practically waiting for time to past because I wanted the day to be over quickly. And the A- grade really did make me complacent. So there goes Computing!! I guess I will most likely have to retake the subject next semester. Was just looking at the subjects that I will be taking next sem, since I am retaking Chemistry, I will most likely be doing at least 7 subjects. Discovery, Math 2, Chemistry, Computing [let's just face it], Effective Comm, Japanese [I really want to do this] and Lab 1B. Or maybe I should do Astro instead of Japanese and take that during the special term instead.

But anyway, tomorrow's Physics and I totally can't do badly for THAT. Will start Thermo in 8 minutes time. Still eating....

::overwhelmed::

2006-11-18T00:33:00.000+08:00

Feeling super duper sad right now because I just realised I did a lot of redundant stuff for the Math exam that cost me plenty of marks!!!!Next time I should not white-out stuff when I am doubtful about the answer. Because I discover that when I white-out stuff that I think is wrong, it usually turn out to be correct! I really want something good to come out of my Math paper!! Actually I was really tired but after talking to ching on the phone I feel disappointed in myself. But the interesting thing is that she told me her bf saw me 'looking sad' after the Math paper today. Actually I was feeling quite glad that it's over instead of feeling sad. Maybe there's something wrong with my facial expressions!!! But ching's really upset about today. I hope she'll study harder for the next few papers so she can feel better about herself.

Didn't study at all just now, was mapling. Spent a lot on maple these few days. Like $30 in 3 days! Now my character looks like this:

::daily report::

2006-10-31T15:44:00.000+08:00

Today is a happy day because I got 16/20 for Economics!!!!!! WEEEEEE!!!!!

Although sadly yesterday wasn't the best day since I kind of screwed up Physics. (A pathetic 3/5 when nearly everyone got full marks). Sometimes I sit in class and wonder why am I so stupid. But Material Science was ok, got 75%. Yet again there were people who got 85% but ... it's ok! Continue to work hard!!!

My kicks are getting from bad to worse!!! SIGH. Kind of hurt my back just now. What is happening to me?!?!!?

::test test::

2006-10-28T02:14:00.000+08:00

My blog can't seem to load and I am wondering why. So here I am typing some stuff to test it.

Today's TKD training was terrible because I seem to be giving up extremely easily. Maybe it's because the brain is still suffering from the great shock that I got D+ for computing when half the class got A or A+. =( BX says I need a lot of motivation. Ya, I guess so. But I won't be quitting anytime soon because I have been telling quite a lot of people that I am going to get my black belt in 2.5yrs time!!!!!!!

How I wish Shifu would train us again. Next Tuesday will be the last official training because EXAMS are going to start in 2 WEEKS time!!!!!! Exams... bleah. If I screw up computing I would most probably take Chem next week to pull up my grades. Or maybe I should just retake computing next sem cos there's a high chance that I would flunk it. Or maybe I should just think positive and memorise the whole computing textbook and hope to get an A. Yeah, I should think that way. MUST TAKE ACTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I am still regretting that I didn't S/U Economics.

2 quizzes on Monday. MUST DO WELLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUST TAKE ACTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh ya, I can finally book my TP Test date!!!!! FINALLY. Happy =)

EDIT
Even after changing my template my blog still can't load!!! And I suddenly feel very sad because the UC video that I am watching spoiled at the 30th minute. Nothing plays after that when the whole thing is supposed to last 1hr. ARGH. Is it the com!?!!? But we just fixed it!!!

::crazy day::

2006-10-24T23:22:00.000+08:00

Today was Sentosa Day!!!!!!!!!!!~ Now I am dark red. Nice.

It was quite fun although the cycling part was kind of tiring. I was the slowest cyclist!! But Daemon taught me how to use the gears and stuff so I think I learnt quite a bit. We cycled all the ulu places that had a lot of freaking slopes and every time the thigh would burn when I went up. Luckily I was wearing the TKD shirt, it made me persevere!!! [It's amazing that certain people can cycle uphill and talk on the phone at the same time!] And I actually went for TKD training when I got back! But I think my kicks have deproved. =( I want Shifu to train us instead! But didn't regret going. Muaha. Pigged out after training. That's bad.

And because today's a public holiday, Sentosa and Vivocity was super crowded... But Vivocity is truly the shopaholic's heaven!!! So many nice clothes so little $$$$$$

Maybe I should blog about what happened on my birthday so when I read my previous entries next time I will remember that day. So last, last Sunday was my birthday. Busy with preparations for Aerofest so didn't have time to go out with friends who had asked me out. But somehow someone managed to find out it was my birthday [ok it was Serene who found out, thanks to Rickie whom I saw when I was cutting the stencil with her, he wished me happy birthday, that's why]. Somehow they managed to get a cake and everything without me knowing. Even the part when they asked everyone to gather for a meeting, I thought we were going to get scolded instead of cutting a cake. Many strangers sang me the birthday song, a first. But I was too stunned to react. I was basically looking stressed throughout. Thanks people! Anbu said he was sorry that I couldn't celebrate my birthday cos of the Aerofest preparations. Hm, thought he was nice to have said that. Skipped my Japanese class and went back to hall with Yu Lu and Jianyang and he treated to dinner at hall 13 canteen! Haha, thanks to him, I get to save some money again! =D Reached my room, few minutes later bx came back and left for her JCRC meeting. After some time she called and asked me to go to Xinni's room. When I went out I ran into bx and Huiting. BX screamed in shock and both of them ran down the stairs. Too lazy to chase them so I just followed the given instructions to go to Xinni's place which was in the opposite block and from her room, I can see the outside of my room clearly. OK, so I was there knocking on the door and her roomie opened it. I was looking over to my place and I saw Xinni running into my room [but she didn't notice me].... ok so it's pretty obvious that they are planning to surprise me or something. Saw Mervin popping out behind the wall as well -_- Anyway, I was told by Hazel to go to Block B's student lounge but I decided that I shouldn't since I knew where the people were already. Went back to my place and saw many slippers outside. Tried to open the door but it was held back. Pleaded to be let in, got in, saw the cake and a person hidden under the blanket. Commented that there was a ghost in the room. The guys appeared and told me to do a second take > I need to act surprised when I saw the cake > and locked me out again. In the end we had 3 takes and during the last one, they blinded me and made me enter the room and after that tried to trap me in the container we used to take the clean clothes!!!! Did the regular birthday stuff of singing the song and cutting the cake. And they wasted one slice by smashing it on my FACE!!! The stupid guys made me shout lame stuff at the top floor and tried to pond me [but thankfully they felt it wasn't safe cos it was too late] and tricked me into getting locked out of the block!!! So that's about it. After that the girls gossiped a bit and we got our room mopped and vacuumed \\(^ ^ )( ^ ^)// It was a fun day afterall!!!!!~~~~

Death Note is a cool movie, DN2 seems like a even cooler movie!!! Black Dahlia's extremely nice, everyone should watch it!!

::where is the love::

2006-10-20T17:29:00.000+08:00

I had wanted to blog about my birthday but this has been a busy week! Finally Aerofest is over!! But Shaker was mean in his 'Thank you email'.

Today the class was exceptionally high, we were playing around in the tutorial room, blasting music and basically crapped a lot. Glad that I changed to AS2 where all the more enthusiastic people are.

Going for a movie later = skipping TKD which makes me feel quite guilty because I thought I regarded TKD as one of the higher priorities. Even if there's a mountain of work to do I would still go for training. Maybe I will just fall asleep during the show.

::the week::

2006-10-14T01:47:00.000+08:00

Yesterday I went to NUS to meet LC!!!!!!! She was so nice to treat me =) Thanks girl!!! Don't be so stressed up ok? But then again, I was very stressed after I reached hall and attended the JCRC meeting. Because I had to submit an extremely important thing to my main comm that night and I was only half done coupled with all the quizzes, assignments and other commitments. Today my friend commented on why am I suddenly so 'on' ever since I went to NTU. Actually I doubt so, didn't make super a lot of friends, just a comfortable handfull and I am pleased with that, although I don't mind knowing more people.

And again, computing is totally screwed up.

TKD celebrated MAF today with bbq and stuff. It started off quite boringly [if there's such a word] but ended off well. We left after they sung the birthday song for the chairperson and another guy at around 2200. I realised that I can't kick well when I partner with people other than my dear roomie. Perhaps it's the way they hold the target. Or it's just me?

Just came back from jogging around the campus. I was learning the proper way of running after running the wrong way for years, thanks to my friends who tried to teach me the right way =) I found out that I can run much faster when I concentrate on my footwork instead of looking forward and up the scary slopes.

Today I have finished my Physics. I hope to complete Math later if possible!!! Should be bathing soon but I'm still kinda like sweating. Exams are starting in 4 weeks time and I just started school 2.5 months back. Aerofest is next week. I really hope that it will be a success, although it is causing me to miss my birthday.

::grading::

2006-10-06T23:53:00.000+08:00

TKD grading this Sunday!!!! I must do a good job!!!! I need to stretch more!!

Plus I think I am getting myself involved in too much CCAs. But then again, it's not really a lot. There's MAE Club's Biz Mag subcomm, Impresario P&P Subcomm (basically I'm not doing anything there), Aero P&P subcomm (that I will most likely be out after Aerofest), Insinyur Programmer Subcomm and tentatively something in JCRC and (I nearly forgot) TKD. But then I still don't really feel that I am overloading myself with such activities. Let's see if I will get really busy or not.

Celebrated mooncake festival with my hall OG people yesterday. We had lanterns, sparklers, candles and of course, mooncakes!!! It was rather fun but the haze kind of spoilt it because it made the air smelly and dirty (or so I felt). But today's haze was much worse!!

And sometimes I really wonder.... black pearls of fate?? Haha. Time to sleep!

::blinded::

2006-09-29T17:08:00.000+08:00

Wednesday's driving was quite ok, today's driving was rather screwed up. The biggest problem with me is the lack of confidence!!! I am like a blind person on the road. I didn't even see the car in front of me getting whacked by another car. Just wonder where am I looking at. Other than that, it's probably due to the fact that today is Friday. Yes, Friday. SIGH. I feel like going out now. To Orchard.. wherever.

BUT let's go back to reality. I need to finish my lab report by today and start studying for my Math and Physics quizzes tomorrow. There's driving again on Sunday. I should be going directly back to hall after that. Need to finish my homework and studying what's not studied. There's supposed to be Japanese class at night but I think I'll be skipping it. Let's hope all goes well so I won't have to miss the lesson.

::recess::

2006-09-24T18:10:00.000+08:00

NTU TKD held it's annual Ultimate Challenge camp on Friday and Saturday. We ran so much and kicked so much, it's a crazy kind of training. My physical strength was surprisingly weak throughout, after the 1st station, I could hardly run to the next one. Thankfully it got slightly better with encouragement and some mental strength. Especially throughout the end when we were all tired from kicking and sparring we kept thinking about ice kachang and chengteng and ice jelly. Running up the stairs was the most strenous part [for me], nearly cried because it was just so painful. But it's all over now and I feel good that I managed to break the plank with one kick [but why didn't I go to the back row..]. It's time to fix the TKD and UC badge on the gi!! Somehow thinking about UC makes me feel sad. Time to improve on my stamina! And forget about certain people.

Checked my email to find out that I didn't make it as GL for the Insinyur camp. Surprisingly I felt upset and embarassed about it. My GL called. Wa, I totally don't know how to face his voice and didn't want to pick up the call. But I smsed him back with a 'you called?' and he called back =_= He said he knew that many people were rejected and asked if I wanted to replace him as GL because he felt he didn't want to be one. I think my reply didn't exactly sound enthusiatic because no. 1, I lacked the confidence for the job and no 2, I was already rejected. But still when he asked I said 'anything lor, just add ba'. So now my status is unconfirmed again.

::this better work::

2006-09-12T22:45:00.000+08:00

Tried to logon to maple just now but to my huge digust I can't seem to get myself connected. And that's when I need to seek solace in maple. And when I attempted to blog, blogger took one hell of a time to load. NTU lan sucks big time!!!!!!!!!!!

When I woke up this morning I had this really bad cramp on my right calf, the second time in my entire life. Somehow that told me that Tuesday would be a bad day. And yes, indeed it's bad although there were really funny moments with Ruixia and our Tuesday madness. Today we discussed about the size of the dumplings we had for lunch when the guys were asking hypothetical questions like 'Do you see yourself still working at 30 when you already have a family?' Another bunch was discussing about the game theory question we did for Economics today. Last week we talked about 包s and the number of people eating them. So much for LC-ness!! Haha. 我们要变成上等人!!

Finally fixed the signature issue with OCBC, should be getting my debit card really soon! And I really like the mango pudding. And the tadpole thingy in it!!!!!! TKD was still enjoyable except there was this weird sense of emptiness during the whole thing. After TKD I had another wave of sian-ed-ness rushing through me. But today we learnt the pattern that we will be doing for the grading. Hoping for double promotion but my movements feel so weak and uncool.

And I am supposed to summit the exhibition thingy today. But on second thought, I think it's probably not necessary. At least I should be at the front portion of the bell curve for the material science CA.

Yesterday was supposed to be a fine day until my phone spoilt again. [The usual phone soaked in water story] Finally got the rose earrings. It's a maple thing. But I didn't wear it today. Ya, luckily I didn't.

::dunkin' donuts::

2006-09-09T01:04:00.000+08:00

Saturday will be a damn busy day!! There's homework to be done as well as some aerospace week stuff to complete. And that's really a lot of stuff. And I am the only one doing it! Now I feel guilty because I haven't been replying my mentor's emails. I'll do it later.

I need to improve on my character! Initiative!!!!!! Confidence!!!!!

I want to go for the Ubin cycling trip but there's Material Science CA on Monday and I will need Sunday to study. Urghhhh.

Today TKD had their handover ceremony. It's kind of a sad thing.

HOW?!?!?! I think I am falling deeper and deeper into the hole!!!!!!! SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!! Too bad kyl not online. She must be sleeping...... Hope my skirt is still on the top of the metal railings.

Anyway, watched Monster House just now and totally enjoyed it =D I finally bought the Yoko Yoko muscle rub but it's not working. My muscles are still aching. And it's been so many days!!

Now I have my eyes on another phone. The Sony Ericsson K800i!! It costs around 400++. Let's hope I can get my hands on it asap. I've checked out the reviews. It's not a bad phone with pretty lot of functions. After using the lao kok kok phone I believe this one would be a nice change!!

2006-09-02T10:23:00.000+08:00

The best thing that happened yesterday was my brother commenting that I cut my hair because NO ONE ELSE noticed!!! $36 mind you!!! Alright, not that no one else noticed. There was still this other girl in my class that noticed my new haircut. Which reminds me. My mom said I was silly to spend $36 on a haircut but she actually spent $40 for 3 durians!!! Ok la, at least I get to eat them. And they tasted good!!!! =D

Went ice-skating yesterday. Saw two girls struggling with their skates' laces so I helped them with it [although it was my first time there also]. Then my other friend came and helped them too. Then we went into the ring. After falling down on my butt several times and screaming in the process the two girls kind of waved to my other friend and they asked my friend to teach them how to skate. After passing them to another friend we continued on our own. There was some confusion about whether we were friends or not with the girls among our classmates because they appeared quite friendly with my other friend. Actually we just met! But they were dressed in such a matured manner!!!! When they said they were 15 we were quite stunned actually. And one of them asked if I am a Singaporean Chinese because she said I looked Japanese. Ok, at least she never said I looked like a PRC. But ever since I went to U people have been saying I look foreign.

Just now kyl called saying my skirt flew down to somewhere unreachable when the wind blew! Hahahahaha. Sure can take back one, so kyl don't feel bad la... hurhur... Maybe next time you can do the laundry more often? MUAHA.

2006-08-18T15:49:00.000+08:00

I guess my blogging frequency is currently once or twice per week. It was only 2 weeks before when I had such great enthusiasm for blogging! [well it was partly due to the fact that I wanted to spread my joy to the world about LJK] Nowadays don't really have a lot of blogging mood because of school. Lectures are really bad because we have lousy notes and Profs who can't really teach. I am still in the slacking mood, haven't found my mugging partner. In the past at least I had Fiona to study together in school.

Anyway the highlight of these few days was Taekwondo!!! The Shifu was really damn cool!! And of course the black belters were impressive as well! I thought the training was rather fun even though I was the weaker types. We did a lot of stretching exercises and some guys were really flexible [which makes me sad]. Learnt the horse stance and some basic kicks, I realised that I don't have much balance. Or is it because my leg muscles are too weak to hold myself on the ground?

There's driving again tomorrow and let's hope it'll be a fun session!

::bends::

2006-08-12T11:04:00.000+08:00

It's a really tiring week!!! And I even got sick on Thursday most probably because of the raw egg I ate on National Day. It's kind of sad that I didn't watch the NDP on National Day itself. I went out with my OG people and stoned there. I was glad we watched a movie after dinner instead of sitting around talking. Tokyo Drift was awesome!!!! I hope I can drive like that... Today's driving lesson made me feel even more retarded than usual. URGH. The instructor noticed that I have some coordination problems. But anyway I should have improved. At least he said the last few rounds were alright. I think I was too tensed up!!!!

And I have so much homework.

There are altogether 61 people doing the aerospace course and out of these 61, only 13 are girls [including me]. And I know all of them already. I'm glad I actually introduced the girls with me and myself to another group of girls. It gathered all of us together!!! =)

I hope tomorrow's driving lesson will be a much better one.

I've always been thinking is there anything I can do to satisfy the people around me, ie. be the 'nice girl'. But it's either I tried but failed or I don't have the guts to try to be nice. So I don't know how to accept compliments and be sincere and this, I understand pisses people off. Someone teach me how to be more thick skinned and less anti-social!!!

I wonder how school will be like next week. I just saw the time table and it's very exciting!! [Ya, right.] Monday is the most packed day, lessons start at 0830 and end at 1730. Friday is super slack. I doubt I will begin my UE this term, I think I'm busy enough. Still thinking if I should go for exemption. IF I do, I probably can start on Japanese this semester! Shouldn't have joined the Japanese class in the CC when I can do it for free in U. We had many free lunches this week because of all the orientation talks and stuff. HAPPY!!! There are a couple of things that I must bring to hostel still. Nailclipper, organiser, more casual clothes, fork, chopsticks, spoon, bowl, foolscape, another bag. Needa bring back the ethernet cable, handphone + laptop charger, face medicine, ear cleaner, laptop + mouse, towel.. and what else? SP gift! Too full for pilates.... don't feel like going....

And M's gone! So fast right. But life still goes on. Went for my 1st driving lesson today and must say that I have problems with the steering wheel. Keep turning here and there in the circuit until I finally became a road hazard by cutting into other vehicles' lanes. Basically the car can't stay straight because I keep forgetting to steer the wheel back to the straight position after turning -_-!! If I am driving fast, I should turn fast and vice versa for slow driving. Let's remember that!

Finally I am blogging again! And I finally found out how to access the internet from campus!! HAHA. Today was the 1st day of camp and I must say that my OG not very enthu. I think I really miss engin camp!!! Anyway, this morning we were supposed to meet at 10am to pay up but the main com people where still unsure of what they were doing when I approached them to ask about payment!! What can I say, Hall 16 isn't very happening. So we spent a lot of them waiting and stoning. Hope tomorrow will be a better day!

But the girls are quite nice. The guys... nothing to say. Only some can be called males.

Here I am trying to chew my carrot cake 30 times before I swallow it but before I get to the 12th chew it's already in a gooey state. Well not really, it depends on the carrot cake [whether the part I am chewing has egg on it or not].

Just came back from NTU after bringing some stuff over to hostel. After arranging all the stuff that I had brought today, I realised that I was still lacking in a lot of other things. Anyway, I was waiting for Ching to reach hostel and goodness! When I left I swear I saw moss on my nose!! Didn't manage to see her in the end. She was wayyyy toooooo lateeeeeeeeee. So I kind of waited for nothing. Luckily for ipod!!

When I left the campus was already really dark and ulu looking. And I stupidly walked to the bus stop in front of NIE which was super duper deserted. It was cold and I accidentally kicked a snail. And the whole time when I was waiting for 199 I was thinking if the bus was still in service for the day. And I was kinda scared... of the usual stuff.

Tomorrow Snowy and SmellyPillow will be going to hostel!! YAY!! If Snowy was in hostel today I probably won't be as bored because I can talk to it. And I missed qi today cos we didn't see her after pilates [cos we usually see her after lesson].

::money problems::

2006-07-28T23:57:00.000+08:00

Finally collected the keys to hostel today!! We got the nicest looking hostel in the entire campus!! The lift is even better looking than that of my HDB flat and the lock is rather high tech! But I still can't find the pantry and laundry room. The room is bright and airy and smells good. I think I am really lucky to get hall 16 actually. The only bad thing about the hall is that it's rather inaccessible.

Today I just withdrew $30 from my POSBank account and was totally stunned by the amount I have left. Speechless. Shocked. Astounded. Whatever. Speaking of which, I hope the problem about the refund will be settled by monday or else.

Really excited about campus life. Plus the environment seems good.

::damn pissed::

2006-07-28T00:21:00.000+08:00

Currently, I am feeling super duper stressed because of the stupid hostel acceptance fee which was actually refunded!!!!! WTF. Why is the epayment so screwed up?!?!?! Now I have no idea whether I have paid or not because the dumb internet banking account statement is not yet updated and goodness knows when will it be updated. It didn't reflect the transaction on the 25th for the hostel acceptance fee but I know the money's being dealth with because it's reflected in the ledger balance. ARGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! Feel like going to collect the keys asap cos then I would know how the dumb ass application went. Just sent an email to the person in charge regarding the refunded money. I hope he/she will respond soon enough to keep me from worrying unduly.

I developed my photos today and pasted them on the photo album. Tomorrow I will be adding captions. YAY!! And I need to practise smiling in front of the mirror. My sis says I have a plastic smile.

The thought of the jpnese lesson being postponed disgusts me. I was sooo looking forward to it and now it's postponed!! I rather drop the lesson now since I can do it in school instead. But I can't bare to part with my $$!!!

::peeling::

2006-07-26T23:09:00.000+08:00

Logged on to msn a while ago and saw someone's nick as 'can't believe how I felt for you' [or something like that]. So I was like thinking who's the person and a few seconds later it was changed to 'really cannot anyhow put nicks'. But if you don't want other people to k-po then you shouldn't sabo yourself first right? Anyway, I finally watched Pirates!!! Very funny, I enjoyed it =) I kind of expected the ending to be like that so it didn't really affect me. Estella said there's a scene after the credits so we waited.... and the scene was less than 5s?!?! (_ _!!!!!!!!)

I finally gave kyl her birthday present and I still think it is too small to be present. Sorry kyl!!! M is going to US soon... sad!! Hope she enjoys herself there! And take care of jr. ok? It'll be safe from me since it'll be so far away!! MUAHA. We talked a bit about LJK today and I think I am slightly interested in him again!!! We also saw rene and she was wearing the same shirt that I wore yesterday -_-!!!!!!! I swear I am not going to buy OP anymore!!!!! I saw countless people in that top today and the past few days [even in camp]. ARGH. I rather spend a bit more for exclusivtivity [wonder if such a word exists].

::lala::

2006-07-26T10:53:00.000+08:00

Surprisingly, I didn't start playing Pangya 1st thing when I woke up!! Decided to check my email and found out that the links to the photos taken during the camp are up! So I dl-ed the files.... took quite some time before everything was inside my laptop. But I was quite afraid to look at the photos [really!] O.o Don't want to suffer a shock in the morning seeing my face in the pics mah! But anyway I still randomly glanced at them and decided that this has got to be the nicest group photo we have:

When I logged on to msn this morning I saw angela online but didn't dare to bother her because judging from her msn nick, she seems to be in a 'do not bother me' mood. Nevermind, there will be another chance!! Must remember to bring the bear today!! Or else kyl will murder me!! Thinking if I should be leaving the house earlier to buy her present but I feel so sleepy now. What's wrong with me anyway. Why am I always feeling sleepy?!?!?! And I am very excited about where we are going to eat later. Somehow I am always excited about food. And Pirates tonight!!!!

Look at this.. damn gross. And I look like I have a bald patch. (_ _!!!!) And what's with the big space above?!!?

::random stuff::

2006-07-25T23:09:00.000+08:00

So what am I doing now? There's this really horrible sounding song playing in the background from my main com and my sister has fallen asleep on my bed once again!! I can see all the OGLs online but everyone else is like missing. I am super sleepy and thinking how am I going to get to hall 16 and when am I moving in. Part of my consciousness is feeling fearful of the 7th month. [Thank goodness, it's S.H.E now] And I am still waiting for Angela and qi to come online!!

Met up with the group again!! It's fun to meet with them and we almost got full attendance for the very 1st time! If only rene was around then all of us would be present. Had dinner at NYNY... food was okay but I really dislike the sitting arrangement!! [Qi is online now!! YAY!!] We crapped a lot!! SO FUN!!

::pangya!::

2006-07-25T11:29:00.000+08:00

Now that I am getting better at Pangya, I am developing a greater interest in it! Muaha. Although I can only play a course fairly ok and screw up all of the others. (_ _!!!) It's good that kyl plays it as well so she can practise with me!!! MUAHAHAH. But kyl is so pro and I am so noob =( It's sad. It was only 2 weeks before when I liked to carry my laptop around because LJK was in it but now [!] it's cos Pangya is in it!! So sad right, I have gotten over LJK over such a short period of time. Does it mean that all the magazines I have gotten is now junk?

::redang+camp::

2006-07-23T17:56:00.000+08:00

Wa, it's been so long since I last blogged!!! Anyway, today is bixia's birthday!! YAY! Happy birthday!! I hope I can get your present soon. =p

Redang was ok kind of fun. I guess I won't be going back there anymore. Frankly, it's a rather boring place. Snorkelling like the only thing to do unless you want to pay more money to go diving and other crap stuff. And there's no jet skiing and water skiiing!!! There's nothing much to do there. We spent a lot of time lingering on the beach doing nothing. It's even more meaningless than mapling. And snorkelling is totally not for me. I hate the fishes especially when they come in schools. We get to feed the fishes in the marine park and when they see the food they come towards you and start pecking your food and you. I only feel relaxed in deeper waters when the fishes are far away. Weird me. When I see pomfrets swimming around I start thinking about them as food. There were eels and sharks and sea cucumbers [they look damn black] and plenty of colourful fishes and reefs. The sea was pretty blue in the marine park. In the open sea, it's mainly a green tone, although my friends disagree with me about that point. Some corals were rather tall and people were standing on them and you could see that the top part was already dead!!! OMG!! Poor reefs. We also saw clown fishes swimming in the anemone!!! It's actually quite an eye opener but still, snorkelling isn't for me as mentioned. The best part of the snorkelling trip was actually the time on the boat. It takes 15 to 30min to reach the destination from the resort and it's really nice with the wind blowing against your face and the sea spray and scenery. There's this tiny piece of land in the middle of the sea that's only composed of sand and nothing else [like the one Ayu was dancing on at the beginning of the BLUE BIRD mv]! Thought that was really cool. Plus we saw blue sand at night!

Now about the resort. It's beautiful and big with ok rooms. Easily the nicest looking resort on the island. [Saw nearly all of them because they shared the same beach] But it didn't give me the impression that it's a five star hotel. If I didn't see the other resorts, I would feel rather differently. The food looks good but doesn't always taste good. I would say breakfast was the best meal!

When I was in Redang, I kept thinking of LJK!!! But when I was in camp, LJK hardly popped up. This shows how occupied I was in camp and how slack I was in Redang. Now that I'm back from camp, I am no longer very interested in LJK!!! OH NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Even after watching King and the Clown again I still feel nothing much toward him!!!!! OH NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Now about camp. When I reached home on Tuesday it was already 9+ at night. And I still had to pack for my camp!! In the end I slept at around 1am and woke at 5am in order to reach NTU by 730. But anyway I was still late. My OG was mainly guys, there were only 3 girls! Ching told me the organisers had to reject a lot of guys because too few girls participated. Camp was FUN!!! But I kind of regretted being myself [the recluse that refuse to talk] and missing the first 2 days of it. Missed fright night which was on day 1. I never got frightened at fright nights because I was the one frightening other people as station master [though not always successful o.O]. Ran a lot for Amazing Race and it was made worse with my shorts being too loose and felt like falling off every time I started running. Man, that sucked. Shouldn't have worn that pair. It seemed that the organisers like to have the kind of matchmaking stuff that didn't kind of work for me because I was either too tired or too pissed to talk to anyone. We had a campfire, spent a night at Sentosa, played some really barbaric beach games, spent a night blindfolded and had SP night. Now I feel very lazy to continue describing the camp!!!! But the thing is I didn't regret going for it \\(^~^ )( ^~^)//.

By the way, I went for the MJ concert yesterday. They invited the Aichi Meiden High School Band from Japan to perform and man, they were really very very good!!!!!!!! MJCSB was already a gold band but in comparison to the Meiden High School band, they appeared to be rather mediocre. I was damn shagged at that time due to the fact that I just broke camp but listening to their music made me high!! They could even double up as a choir!!.. and cheerleaders!!! And they had really kawaii MCs!!

Just now my mom brought us to this Japanese restaurant at Katong. I finally tasted the curry rice!!! SO HAPPY!!!! Going to start dieting again tomorrow. I think I grew fatter after camp. My feet sort of feels swollen and my face got darker!! Entire legs ache like mad. Got cuts all over and there's a mildly painful bump on the head and face. Super sleepy now....

::still haven't packed::

2006-07-15T10:12:00.000+08:00

Episode 14: Mediocre [I wouldn't rate it as dull cos I think there were some breakthroughs], don't think I will remember anything much from this one because as usual it's the crying parts, which is always due to the you-know-what reason, except this time the cause of it is not the same because it's the grandfather who initiated it. Sian la, always like that. So slow-paced. It's amazing how they managed to drag this for an hour plus. Everything moves very slowly, from the grandfather's expression to the passing of the envelop to the crying and all. Everything is in slow gear, it makes you impatient. But I liked the ending.

Eat this! <3<3<3 It's a 'My Girl' interview =D

Episode 15 [2nd last episode]: Thankfully this one is good!! It isn't wishy-washy like the previous one, I would say things went rather fast and didn't have plenty of those long staring-into-space scene. The pace was ok, it should have been like this all along!!!! Now they are into the part when Gong Chan tries very hard to win back Yoo Rin and she keeps denying her feelings. Actually a lot of things happened in this episode, so I didn't find it boring because I was kept occupied by the various emotions of the characters.

Still in the process of getting episode 16. Really doubt I can get it by today so I guess I'll just watch it on Youtube. Sucks.

Episode 16: Hm, the finale. It's a happy ending and those who should be together are together. But I didn't think the last episode was very satisfactory. It was a tad slow [again] in the beginning and only gained momentum nearing the middle part. I would say the best part of the entire last episode is when the credits start to roll! MUAHAHA. Watch it to find out why!

Will do a final summary later I guess.

EDIT: Back! Just finished with the packing and all, very tired because it was hard thinking what to bring and what not to bring. About the show, I would rate it 3.5/5 stars. If you are really into Kdramas, maybe you should watch it. If you are into Lee Da Hae or LJK, you should watch it. If you want to be a potential fan of LJK, YES, you should watch it =D

I just found LJK's digital single!!!!!!! HAPPY!!!!!!!!! ＼(^▽^＼)(/^▽^)/

Think I am too full now- feel like puking. (_ _!!!)

::haven't packed!::

2006-07-15T00:33:00.000+08:00

Episode 13: NICE NICE NICE!!!! Although the starting wasn't very entertaining, it gets better and better!! And although it's more of the sad stuff than the happy stuff [nearly no jokes at all throughout the entire show], it's EXCITING, EXCITING, EXCITING!!!. I think I really like it when the bad person bitches around and all cos it's getting kinda boring with the 'I wanna go but I can't bare to leave you' stuff. And LJK! Think he performed very well in this episode [right, he did well in all but was exceptional in this one]!! Nearly teared when Jeong Woo cried [he's sooooo noble!! Think it's cos the actor's great isn't it? (⌒▽⌒)ノ]. It's like, I've seen Yoo Rin cry countless times but I wasn't touched but pissed cos it's revolving around the damn 'I wanna go but I can't bare to leave you' or 'We can't be together forever now cos of our lies' issues all the time, which is totally the most boring and overused plot there ever was for Kdrama [ok, maybe the part about Jeong Woo being noble is quite predictable but I liked it]!!! Hoping that epi 14 will be as exciting as this 1 as I see a lot of crying faces in the trailer. MUAHA. Getting sadistic. Let me make this clear. I still dislike sad stuff [ya, I know I am repeating this for the Nth time but it's that 'No, you can't leave although you have too cos I needa protect you' and the 'I am in torment cos you don't love me' nut plot] but I LOVE new breakthroughs with the plot. That's what I mean by exciting. No new breakthroughs, no exciting.

OK, now let's do a summary of episodes from epi 1 to 13. 8, 9, 12 and 13 are the best up till now. Episodes 1-3 basically is about Yoo Rin's debt problem and how she got hooked up with Gong Chan [amusing although some might find it lame and irritating, like my sis] and after that it's some funny stuff and getting into the dull parts in maybe 4-5 and totally into the dead parts in 6-7. To be fair, there are always scenes that will make you laugh quite a bit in the dead episodes [plus LJK to stare at, although he doesn't really appear in high frequencies until during and after episode 8] but dude, I just hate the lame crap about Yoo Rin and Gong Chan in denial about their own feelings towards each other [esp GC, he's one wooden guy] and struggling about the 'I wanna go but I can't bare to leave you' stuff. Same goes for 10 and 11. Sad period, when I was watching it, I felt that the characters were so pathetic [ya, even Jeong Woo.. if someone else acted as JW, I probably would have given up the show totally].

I hope I can get the finale in the pc by tomorrow or I shall spend the whole of next week in anguish.

::one more day::

2006-07-14T10:00:00.000+08:00

Wa, it's raining so heavily now. Feel like going down to buy stuff and get a little wet. ^__^

Episode 10, SIGH, it's another one of those 'no, you can't go', 'yes, I want to go', 'yes, I want to be with you but I can't tell you that or god save me something bad might happen', 'I love you so much yet I can't say it' kind of soapy drama. I wonder what's so entertaining about such dilly-dallying crap. Jeong Woo appears pretty much but I don't really enjoy it now cos for most of the part he is sad and sad and sad [makes me sad as well] and contributes quite a bit to the unhappy, slow-paced atmosphere of the show. Ok, I can't expect all of them to be always happy and excited about life but it's really progressing too slowly!!!! I wonder how long can they be at the 'she should leave' part. It's dull stuff, this episode. But there's one interesting part though!! =D and that's the part in the suana-like place =D Thankfully, the side plot about the relationship between the aunt and the uncle provides comic relief as well.

Episode 11, good start, not very good ending. The idea the show is giving me now is that everyone is desperate to love someone. I have come to acknowledge the fact that 'My Girl' basically is about Yoo Rin wanting to leave yet not wanting to, Gong Chan wants Yoo Rin but he can't cos of this stupid lie they set up about them being cousins [and what's with the thing about cousins not being able to get together? My grandparents were cousins and they got married and had 5 sons and 1 daughter, all very smart people]. Jeong Woo wants Yoo Rin but I think she kinda fears him or something, poor guy. Sae Hyung wants Gong Chan but he feels that he doesn't really love her anymore. Do Koreans love this kind of stuff? The Kdramas I watched basically has that kinda plot. Anyway, 5 more episodes and that's it. Am not really expecting a twist in the end, cos you can kinda guess who will end up with who anyway. But I really am hoping for a twist. But the best thing about this series is that there are really super humorous and comical parts that makes you laugh quite a bit ^__^ Some parts are indeed clever and witty.

Episode 12: I LIKE!!! Finally the story is progressing.. after such a long wait.

::blurry eyed::

2006-07-13T19:01:00.000+08:00

Watched episode 1-7 today. It's funny but I feel the plot's quite the norm [reminds me of 真命天女]. The actress acts well but her character is one of the normal kind of female characters dramas usually have- loud, dramatic, thick skinned. I have the feeling the show is going to get really boring soon because the female lead [Yoo Rin] is thinking if she should go or not and the other male lead [Gong Chan] is like, I dunno, figuring out if he should let her go and his GF [Sae Hyun] is getting kinda bitchy and poor Jeong Woo! He likes her but she doesn't like him. Add in some funny scenes and you get My Girl. Losing stamina but I am still trying very hard to watch it to the very end cos of LJK. And he doesn't even appear very often!! Like maybe only >=10min of the entire 1hr show! I'm glad I didn't get it from Yesasia! I guess dramas are not for me. It takes forever for one to end [unlike Japanese dramas that usually have only 9-11 episodes and very cool plots/scenarios, which is why I prefer Japanese dramas] so it gets draggy and it's even worse when the reason you are watching is the show is for one actor and the actor is only the supporting character!!! Hence, movies are always the better choice. 2hrs and it's all over. Plus if your idol is the lead, you get to see plenty of him/her! I love movies!!! And you can watch it over and over again without feeling very bored or waste too much time.

EDIT: Just watched episode 8! It has got to be the best episode so far cos it has got lots of LJK [love the arcade scene] and this episode's rather hilarious =D I might like it better if I continue watching.

EDIT EDIT: Watched episode 9!!! Another better episode so far! Jeong Woo appears more consistently throughout the show now, unlike the previous few where he only appears either in the beginner/middle/ending part. Hope the next one won't be too bad because the trailer for epi 10 looked like the usual bitching stuff.

::confused::

2006-07-12T22:53:00.000+08:00

I am supposed to be not spending any more money but in the end I got 2 new tops today!!!! Thankfully I didn't get anything from Esprit or the other more costly shops. Going to watch My Girl tomorrow! YAY!!

EDIT: I just realised that Rain is going to take over LJK to be KGiordano's spokesperson/model(?)!!! Ah well, I doubt with Rain [I don't deny his appeal], their sales are gonna increase anyway. The problem lies with the designs dude!!! If I had to chose between Esprit and Gior, I'd definately chose Esprit!! Nowadays Giordano outlets usually appear empty except for the sales people (well that may not be true in Korea, I dunno). Anyway, the HK newspaper that reported it had to make the title sound so crude. It loosely translates as 'Rain (obviously) snatches LJK's rice bowl to be KGior's spokesperson together with (this other K artiste)'. I added some words in between to make it appear clearer. But the point is, I don't know why tabloids have to write in such a demeaning manner. BLEAH. Another thing, China has banned 'King and the Clown'. Hah, what's new? And LJK's gonna have a new film with Miyazaki Aoi (Nana) entitled "初雪" or "First Snow". Can't wait!!! I love Japanese + Korean collaborations. It's cute to see two people trying to communicate with each other when they don't speak each other's language. But I do hope the news is reliable.

::money fly away::

2006-07-12T01:52:00.000+08:00

Been spending a lot lately!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FREAK!!!!!!!! Last week spent $89 on bag, today alone I spent $69+$58+$60 bucks, on King and the Clown dvd, ear piercing and mags that contain LJK's pictures. Feel really silly to spend such money where I could have actually spent it on better places especially the mags. I wish to find LJK's official picture book if there is one. Then it might probably end my way of spending money like it falls from heaven. Searched Kino for mags that contain LJK stuff today and saw many mags that has Ayu for covergirl. Quite happy to see her on so many mags actually =) But sadly, I haven't got enough money left to get any of hers.

Finally saw Angela and XR today. It's been months since I last saw their faces!! Leg aching like mad now. Going to sleep.

::cyworld::

2006-07-11T11:43:00.000+08:00

Recently, I discovered something called Cyworld, a popular South Korean Blogging service.

Below is what I have taken off Wiki about Cyworld.

LJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJK

The main feature of Cyworld is the service called minihompy, which combines a photo gallery, message board, guestbook, and personal bulletin board. What sets Cyworld apart from traditional blog sites such as Blogger and LiveJournal is the "miniroom", which is the virtual room where the blogger's cyberspace avatar, or "mini me," lives. Users can choose to buy wallpapers, clothes for their virtual counterparts, furnishings, background music, banners, fonts and other decorations for their minihompy. To buy these items, users must first exchange their real world currency with Cyworld money called "dotori" (Korean: 도토리) –- literally translated, "acorns." Most of these items are time-limited, and automatically disappear once that time has expired.The typical layout for a minihompy has a title (e.g., "This is X’s minihompy"), and four main areas. The left column has a photo, followed by a brief description and user information (name, blood type, birthday, address, etc.), and links to mutual buddies’ minihompys. The center area displays the main content (profile, photo gallery, bulletin board, diary, etc.). On the intro page, this area features the user’s avatar and miniroom, as well as recent postings, and an area for visitors to leave short comments. Off to the right side is a quick menu of links to all the pages of the minihompy, and to the far right is a window that tracks various statistics such as number of visitors.

....and so on so forth. Click the above link to read more.

LJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJK

After reading through the description, I realised it's something like Maple and it's A Cash. Highly commercialised service, considering the fact that "..can choose to buy wallpapers, clothes for their virtual counterparts...To buy these items, users must first exchange their real world currency with Cyworld money.....items are time-limited, and automatically disappear once that time has expired." But it's really cool looking! And it lets you post an unlimited amount of pictures!

SS taken from Mashable! According to Mashable, Cyworld has launched it's public beta in the US. I hope the official release will be out soon! And finally, I just downloaded auditionSEA!! There's going to be another game released by asiasoft soon and it's called KongKongSea. Er, sounds lame?

::zakum::

2006-07-10T22:25:00.000+08:00

Zakum coming to Maplesea soon!! ARGH!!!!!!!! Why why why why is it Zakum dammit?!?!?!?! Why not Omega Sector? I trained my ariane to 51% today. Another 49% to level up! But to be frank, training is such a bore. Let's see, my daily routine consists of surfing the net for various reasons, occasionally logging on to Maple, playing Pangya for maybe 1-2hrs and.. well nothing more since I didn't go out today. Going to get my ears pierced tomorrow (!!!). Hope it won't hurt too much. Can't wait to get to Kino!!! [Muaha, my latest hobby now is to search for LJK stuff, have I mentioned?] I think there's something wrong with my friend's msn. She keeps logging in every [I dunno] 0.1s?

Oh ya, watched today's Superband. That DJ judge dressed up as [I guess] Bruce Lee, with the yellow suit and all. Milo Ice [mi lu bing] also wore yellow. My sis was saying the judge should form a group with Milo Ice and call themselves Banana. Actually I thought it was quite funny, no? And 1 more thing. I always thought Misaki from Lucify looked like Ueto Aya from day one. Today I was flipping through this issue of I-Weekly [the one that had a LJK exclusive] and discovered that Misaki looked more like Ah Gil of Twins!!!

Misaki of Lucify

Ah Gil of Twins

Ueto Aya

I didn't know his name was Misaki until today and Misaki, isn't it 美咲? Girl's name? Whatever.

LJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJKLJK

Never realised this 3 alphabets were placed next to each other until today!!

And FIFA is finally over. Italia won and that's cool! 1 last thing. I just realised Superstar is going to start their auditions again [!] in September!! OMG that's just totally insane. It means after one whole string of Superstar, Campus SS and Superband, they are going to start the whole cycle again! And Singapore Idol isn't even over yet at that point of time. It's crazy. They are stuffing us with so much idol shows, I don't think people even have time to digest previous winners. Mediacorp is just desperate for more viewership and $.

Finally showed someone how adorable LJK is!!! Hope my other friends will come and read my blog. I want them to see my new idol!! Today I went to the Citylink, Marina, ESP area [again] with my friend. Yesterday I hiked there with xi from Kallang CC to Suntec to ESP. I think at least 70% of what I talked about was LJK stuff. Poor girl, she must be bored. Anyways, she went to donate her blood today and there were many people who went to donate as well. I always thought that blood donors were a rarity. There was this blind man who went give his blood as well. What a kind man!!! I took my laptop out today and went around trying out the wireless services provided by Starbucks, Mc. Only Mc provided free wireless service. And it was damn laggy [but then it's free so..]!!! And I have finally gotten Ayu's Blue Bird. Blue Bird sounds good but Beautiful Fighters was another one of Ayu's regular style of music. I hope she'll have a really strong ballad for her next single!!! And she looks totally 可愛い in the Beautiful Fighters MV!!

Sorry about the poor quality. I had a hard time taking the picture!!!

Pirates showing now~!!!!!!!!!

Still thinking if I should get the Dixie Chicks album. Or should I save up for something else?

See so cute! Got this off this website.

I love this CF!!!! I love the song and the way he sings it!!! So cute!!!! He's singing pretty girls drink pomegranate [which is also the brand of the drink... weird name for a brand]over and over and the girl in red said 'so pretty' when she saw him, which is like so true!!! He's sooo pretty!!

And he models for Giordano in Korea!! Freak, why do countries like Japan and Korea have cool CMs but the CMs we have in Singapore are just plain boring!?!?!?!

YAY new skin!!!!

Been spending a lot of money recently because I keep going out. Been eating a lot of fattening foods lately because I keep going out. Man, maple was like the best thing that has ever happened to me!!! I actually saved money and lost weight while mapling. Now I'm on disc 3 of FFVII and I am kind of sick of it already because I don't know which side quest should I do first!!!! And I don't know where to train my characters. In other FFs I always know where to train them but I think my characters this time round are too weak to go to the final dungeon to train at this point of time.

I would like to get the Dixie Chicks album and Ayu's new single today. I finally saw it [the single] yesterday at HMV but [!!!] only the Japan imported CD only version was available =C Anyways, HMV always sells cds at expensive prices as compared to other cd shops.

Oh ya, when I was asleep yesterday I accidentally ripped one of the corners of the pinky the pillow. Now I can see the white fluff threatening to fall out.

Went out with M and kyl today and finally found the bag I want!!! Yay!!!! We watched Garfield 2 today and I thought it was rather entertaining.. Garfield was very cute!!! kyl went to cut her hair but the result wasn't as I had expected. Next time I will ask for another stylist because that fellow that cut her hair really didn't produce the results that match the price, which was what happened to ching as well. What can I say, those fellows shouldn't even be called stylists because they don't even have that much creativity to cut a nice hairdo that suits the client.

I think I ate a lot today. I feel pregnant now!!!!!!!!!

2006-07-04T13:16:00.000+08:00

I was in the lift today with an uncle who lived on the 10th floor. He said he never saw me before and I said I haven't seen him before either. The he asked if I was studying I said now I'm waiting to go to U in Chinese. Then he asked if I'm from CHINA!!!!!!! Freak!!!!! Then I said no, I'm Singaporean and asked why. He then said my Chinese is very chim. Errrr... I guess he didn't catch what I said properly. Haha.

In the morning I went to NTU with Ching for the medical checkup. On the way back we saw this guy with 3 neat rows of round bumps on his right arm on the train. He was sitting opposite of us and I was extremely uneasy during the whole trip [even now]. I was thinking to myself why didn't he surgerically remove them and how hard must it be for him to live with those weird growths on his arm.

Oh ya, I was weighing myself this morning and to my shock I found out that I gained 1kg. I was hoping that the 1kg is due to the fact that I hadn't shit in like 2 days. Anyway, I just shitted just now and I realised that my weight is back to 46kg!! OMG!! So it was really the 2 days worth of shit that caused the increase of my body weight!! That's why I always like to make it a point to shit everyday so I can somehow feel lighter. [sounds dumb doesn't it]

::i think i am getting a..::

2006-07-02T21:55:00.000+08:00

..bitch fit [credits to white chicks, one of the funniest movies i ever watched]!!!

Apparantly my brother likes tacky, cheesy movies eg. the one showing on channel u now. I was commenting to my sister how flat the storyline is and he actually snapped at me! "Jiejie if you don't know anything then don't anyhow comment can!!" Ya, like he know anything he is watching. Everytime when someone asks him what he show is about he says he doesn't know and his lack of common sense in life reflects the fact that what he watched didn't get into his brain. Maybe he just want to be like the couple in the show hence he feels put of by what I said. And he can choose not to listen to what I am saying!!! What the freak is wrong with him?!??! Argh. Sometimes I just feel like stepping on his stomach until he pukes his guts out. Ya, I'm just sadistic. Anyway, I can't wait to go to U. Then I don't have to see his freaking face and hear his ugly voice. And the worst thing is that tomorrow is Youth Day = he doesn't have to go to school = I have to see his face!!! BLEEAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh ya, back to White Chicks. I have no idea why so many critics gave it bad ratings. To quote fiona, they all just wanna act 'high class'.

Why am I suddenly talking about the movie? Cause during the thon we watched it and we laughed until we couldn't sleep after that [which was about 4am]. Which reminds me, Superman rocks!!!!! I love the part where he saved the plane. JUST LOVE SUPERHEROES!!!! Can't wait for Spiderman 3 due next summer!!!!!!

I miss my JC life.... all the time spent studying under lt2 and in the library, at mc cafe and starbucks, especially at the esplanade library when 'A's was nearing... all the kind of crap those girls used to say.. even CO...... Now life is like kind of meaningless..

2006-07-02T08:42:00.000+08:00

I just told Ching that I wouldn't be going to her church at the last minute. I felt so GUILTY when I told her I can't make it anymore!! Shouldn't have said 'yes' yesterday. But when I feel the cramp I feel sian-ed. No mood to go anywhere.

2006-06-21T00:03:00.000+08:00

Watched Silent Hill today and I left the theatre feeling sad and disgusted. I would consider it a rather entertaining film. But I still hope to watch Cars soon. And Garfield.

::oh please::

2006-06-20T01:18:00.000+08:00

I just came home at 0030 and after bathing I logged on to Pangya and MS but veldt wasn't online!!!!!!!!! Suddenly feel so lonely!!! Muahaha. Haven't seen her online for so long it's quite weird.

Went to Gotham Penthouse just now and I almost became deaf due to the extremely LOUD music. My throat is now sore from shouting to my friend who couldn't hear me talk due to the deafening music. Even the bar was vibrating, much to my horror. There was this performance by 'The Men of Exotica' that kind of made my friend rather high. I was impressed by the stunts they performed but anyway the loud music kind of killed me.

Oh and the store manager of Haagen Daz at Clarke Quay is a really entertaining fellow. It's quite a nice place to hang out.

Very tired now...........

::life's good!!::

2006-06-15T01:36:00.000+08:00

Can't wait for Ayu's new single to be out!!! Really love the summer feel to it!!

Think I am going to experience a new life soon when U starts and I go for pilates and driving lessons. At least it's not all about Maple [boooo!!!!] now.

2006-06-04T11:18:00.000+08:00

Finally caught the season finale of Lost and it was nothing short of amazing!!!!!!!!!!

2006-05-27T18:36:00.000+08:00

After changing my keyboard, my jump shots finally have a greater chance of success!!

Also, I am finally able to equip my black brolly!!! =D

And I got a hair cut today and now I think I look ridiculous. -_-!!!

EDIT: Was hunting for esther shield just now. When I got in there was no one is the map. After awhile someone else came. We shared the map and I noticed she got an esther shield. So after my blue pots ran out I decided to ask her if she found that shield. She said ya and she just found another one. FREAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If she didn't come in that shield would have been mine. I AM SO UNLUCKY!!!! Bloody hell I would glady trade my black brolly for the shield.

::speechless::

2006-05-22T20:04:00.000+08:00

OMG!!!!!!!!!! Just saw someone's signature in the MS forum. This level 82 crusader dealt 13k++ attack on this dunno what monster!!!!!!!!! OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My highest attack on ice based monster is only 5k++!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, Ludi is going to be released, so there's something for me to rejoice about as well.

=(

2006-05-19T22:15:00.000+08:00

Damn sad today!!!!!!!! Both my handphone and ipod are ruined!!!!!!!!!!! Stupid waterbottle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! F&^*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

::sick::

2006-05-15T00:42:00.000+08:00

Guess I won't be playing maple tomorrow. Feeling extremely sick now. Sore throat, runny nose. I can feel my temperature rising.

Went to TJCO concert today. It was ok, except for this certain piece that left me feeling rather sleepy. Saw my juniors today but can't really be bothered to speak to them [same for them towards me]. Xue ting was asking me to make it for the percussion gathering this Saturday. I don't want to disappoint her but I don't feel like going either. What's the point of being an extra. I rather maple.

Watched Koda Kumi's MVs today. Certain MVs were VERY steamy. No wonder it's M18. But anyway, her MVs are well made. [Since she's so popular now I guess its not strange for the company to spend more on her. Weird thing is I can't see the same for Jolin. Her MV for Dancing Diva is just so-so even though she performed this 'silk strap' act.] She's got nice songs as well. Her 'best things' was out of stock at HMV in Citylink today. Wow.

::ayu::

2006-05-11T13:46:00.000+08:00

Suddenly I have the urge to create a skin dedicated to Ayumi and buy all her previous albums. Was surfing Oricon's site yesterday and I realised her latest album (miss)understood didn't do as well as her previous albums. Ranked at no. 18, it's even lower than some of her remix albums. I guess I was really disappointed? On the other hand, Koda Kumi's kind of like the most popular female soloist in Japan now. Frankly speaking, I didn't hear of her until FFX-2 invaded my world. Her songs [real emotion and 1000 words, currently her best selling single] featured in the game was the IT that propelled her to fame. Her album sales for Ｂｅｓｔ～ｆｉｒｓｔ　ｔｈｉｎｇｓ～ [released last year] surpassed ayu's My Story by 1 rank and still charting [ranked no. 26 this week] and her ＢＥＳＴ～ｓｅｃｏｎｄ　ｓｅｓｓｉｏｎ～ＬＩＭＩＴＥＤ　ＥＤＩＴＩＯＮ [released this year] is no. 9 on this week's Oricon charts.

......

I guess it's understandable that this is happening because people do get tired of seeing the same person [ayu] for 7 years. But I suppose it's a cycle of ups and downs that all artistes have to go through. Koda has been around for quite some time but only got famous recently [2003, debuted in 2000]. Think she's entering the period that ayu was going through during the release of her A Best album. But anyways, ayu's still the no. 1 artiste to me. ^~^

It all started with my guild member saying that his account got hacked.

This morning he came online saying that he was hacked. I offered him some mesos and stuff and he said no because he can't change his pass as he had forgotten his PIN. So ok, then there's nothing much I can do except to say a few words of consolation. We were never close.

Just now at around 2130, he logged in. What's weird is that he's American. And at 2130 in Singapore, it should be around 6-8 in the morning in US. And it's Monday. So I thought that it was weird because he needed to go to school. I greeted him to check if it was the hacker. We talked a bit and then he asked if I would lend him my account for awhile so that he can play because he felt extremely upset. Naturally I said no. I told him that it was 'against my principles [bah]' and that if he thought I was selfish and cruel he could just get the guild leader to expel me. Anyway, my best friends in the guild have stopped playing and no one's ever online. I asked him why did he want to play my ari suddenly when in the past he had never requested to do so. No reply. For a very long time until I said the selfish and cruel part. He kept forcing me to give him my pw and I kept refusing to do so. In the end he said I was just plain selfish and blah. Actually I was very disturbed because I didn't know if it was really him or the hacker. If it was really him, then I can only say that I'm very disappointed to have a 'friend' that doesn't respect my decision. If it's the hacker, then good for me. Now I'm thinking if I should just leave the guild or wait and see.

I told my brother about this and he said that since I don't know the person in real life, then it doesn't matter whether he thinks I'm a selfish git or not and I should just ignore him because for all I know he could really be the hacker. And he also said that if he's really a friend then he wouldn't keep forcing me to lend him my account 'for 5 minutes'.

DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!!!

Suffered a shock today when kyl was hit. Thank goodness she's feeling better now. [Shall not elaborate on this. It makes me wince.]

There seem to be this big conspiracy going on in the office. But I don't think I'll be staying long enough to find out what it is! Tomorrow's my last day working there and yes, I am feeling kind of sad. Most of them think I'm crazy to quit so early since school is only going to start in August. And they think I am insane to quit just because I want to Maple.

SIGH. Who don't want to earn more money??? But earning money that way is really stressful. Anyway, a new life is going to start. I am going to rot at home from Saturday onwards. YAY!

For some reason Epi 20 is downloading extremely slowly. And I am connected to, like so many seeds. WTF.
